Character Analysis

(Avoiding Spoilers)

Grew Up... rich and content. Bruce Wayne had a nearly perfect childhood until his parents were killed in front of his eyes after a family night out at a musical. Now, aside from his loyal butler Alfred, Bruce is entirely alone.  

Living... in Wayne Manor. As a member of one of the wealthiest families in Gotham City, Bruce resides in the lap of luxury. But money, regal fireplaces, and expensive furniture mean nothing to a boy who has just lost his family.  

Profession... student, but not in a traditional sense. After witnessing his parents’ gruesome murder, Bruce starts a new regime. He holds his hand over lit candles, climbs on top of rickety roofs, and creates strange exercises to promote willpower. When asked about this unusual curriculum, he replies, “I’m learning to conquer fear.”  

Relationship Status... single. Bruce hasn’t ever kissed a girl. In fact, he doesn’t think about them much at all. He’s too preoccupied with discovering the identity of his parents’ killer.  

Challenge... solving the mystery behind his parents’ sudden murder. Bruce hasn’t been able to rest since that fateful night and works tirelessly to find out what really happened. Detective Jim Gordon has assured him that “however dark and scary the world might be right now, there will be light”, but the more Bruce discovers, the less true it seems.  

Personality... serious, determined, and reckless. Bruce is normally a well-mannered and put together individual, but the death of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne has brought out his impulsive side.
